"Boss, I need a raise."

"So I can buy all these new kits by Dragon!"
"Get out of my office."

I've got to admit that my first thought was "ho hum, another Essex." Then I saw it was in Korean War rig, and that's different. I doubt I'll get it, but I'd like to see one built at a show some day.

You could definitely build a very extensive collection of 700 scale AC's from the Saratoga up to present day. I would love to get a 350 scale angled deck Essex and a Forrestal class to fill in the gaps between my WW2 Essex and early Nimitz or late Big E

Mark:

I am expecting you to make big bold headlines when you announce the 350 scale Alabama release (whether it's called the Massachutssetts or Indiana) The South Dakota was different in that it carried only 8 5 inch twin turrets instead of the 10 of the rest of the class
